Grover, Key West Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue said today. Deadline is midnight tonight for gamblers to file income tax returns with the Internal Rev- enue office under the new law, Grover said. “We have an adequate sup- ply of forms on hand, which is still on hand,” Grover said. Not a single, solitary gam- bler has come into his office at the Post Office building to ask for the forms. The law requires gamblers to return forms and pay 50 dol- lars a year for an occupational tax stamp. Throughout the state of Florida, not a single gambler has complied accord- ing to Collector of Internal Revenue John L. Fahs, at Jacksonville. Forms have been sent to 800 known or suspected gam- blers in Florida. asa Marina Hotel OPENS DECEMBER | SPECIAL LOW RATES From $6.00 Single and $10 Double 2 With Bath | *DELICIOUS FOOD Daily eCOCKTAIL LOUNGE No Extra Charge Private Beach @ Cabanas ® Tennis Courts ®@ Shuffle Board for @Swimming—At Key West's Largest @ Bath House ® Use of Individual Solariums INCLUDING COVERED GARAGES All Included In Your Room Rate Telephone 308 These Special Rates Available ‘Til Dec. 22nd ihe Tiger Woman.” | the Arizona State hospital for the | ingane, near Phoenix, | being sentenced’ to hang for the murder of two roommates in 1931, | | POOR OLD CRAIG | Prancis at Truman 100 RENTAL UNITS ARE AUTHORIZED George Smathers, Spessard Hol: | land, United Sta’ Representative Wi! today informed The Citizen that Housing and Home Finance had.| past advised them of the scheduling ‘of, 100 units of rental housing to be) immediate reaction as located in Monroe County under | phers circled madly to get lent angles of Mr. ‘Truman: attired recent critical area designation.
